About Eddy

As President of Wood Floor Planet, Eddy Laboy brings a lifetime of wood flooring expertise and experience to every job. That, together with Eddy’s dedication to keeping his customers “well informed and seriously satisfied” – and an extensive selection of top-quality flooring materials – has made Wood Floor Planet a go-to destination for homeowners, decorators, contractors, and architects in the NYC metropolitan area.

Laboy began his wood flooring career at the age of 15, starting his first summer job as a stock boy filling up the shelves for Manhattan Floor Supplies. Over the next 16 years, he continued to expand his knowledge and served in various managerial positions for the company while earning his bachelor’s degree in business earlier in his career.

By 2006, Eddy was ready to start a wood flooring business of his own, promising his customers “Flooring for Every Lifestyle”– and with the management, installation, and materials knowledge to back the promise up.

“We know that flooring is a big investment when it comes to home improvement,” says Eddy. “And unlike your larger distributors, Wood Floor Planet gives undivided attention to every customer in consulting and answering every question that they may have on choosing the right hardwood floor in style, color, and installation for every application.”

With a new showroom opened in 2014 in Weehawken in addition to Laboy’s original NYC showroom at 425 W 46th St., Wood Floor Planet is now better equipped than ever to serve customers in the NYC metro area and Northern NJ with fast, friendly, and first-rate service.
